How Sneaky

How sneaky the monster is;
Unannounced he quietly slips into the darkest corner of the room.
Hiding out for months before making a single move.
Like a Russian sleeper cell waiting for activation;
Then––a dip in Faith.
It starts with a reaction to a setback;
and just like that, insecurity sets in.
Minor tremors of doubt that seems like nothing:
But it’s too late...the Ego has returned.
The only defense against the beast––Awareness.
Acknowledge the evil for what it is, take a breath, and return to the present.
The ego needs validation; the only course of action: suffocate it!
